Wow, that’s a lot of water. Not good.

Looks like a series judging by the roof, or an early 90? 2014 Keswick Utility 2.2

It's a coiler. You can tell by the one piece windscreen which extends up into the roof. 2011 110 USW

Awful situations for people in some parts! Sad
But as said the Land Rover will be ok once dried out, the new Defender would be scrap after a dunking like that!

Why? Assuming he's on a road and therefore a predictable surface, and he can maintain a steady speed, it's perfectly doable. Darren

I think I agree, the water is probably at the top of the tyres and we are seeing the bow wave. By the book just about. Thumbs Up 2010 XS USW
